Rebuilding the Immortal Cultivator Clan Chapter 2052 1495: Guidance

Li Debo felt somewhat relieved upon sensing the humility from that individual. His biggest fear was encountering someone arrogant and overbearing, who leaned on their background to disdain others.

Being kind to such a person leaves you stewing in resentment and loss; offending them sparks worry over grudges from their entire faction—it's truly distressing.

Thankfully, this one wasn't like that.

Li Debo's smile warmed further as he spoke, "Fellow Daoist, you've journeyed from far away. Please come inside for a cup of spiritual tea and a brief rest."

"Many thanks for your hospitality, Fellow Daoist, but no need to go to any trouble."

The Earth Immortal shook his head, replying, "I have an urgent mission and can't afford delays. I'll explain my reason for coming right here."

"You've likely heard already—our sect has recently produced a Profound Immortal Ancestor. Our elders figured it'd be festive and a good opportunity to connect with fellow cultivators, so we're organizing a Grand Profound Immortal Ceremony, inviting all major forces in the East Continent Immortal Tao."

With those words, he offered an invitation crafted from clouds and rosy dawn.

"That's only fitting. The Li family will definitely participate." Li Debo accepted the invitation smiling, promising attendance immediately.

He continued, "Since Fellow Daoist is pressed for time, I won't hold you back from your duties. Yet this pot of spiritual wine restores mana and refreshes the spirit—you can't refuse it this time!"

"My gratitude, Fellow Daoist. I'll gladly accept it." After all, as a wine enthusiast, he couldn't turn down such fine spirits even if he wanted to!

"Fellow Daoist, word is the Supreme Elder plans to hold a lecture forum." In exchange for the spiritual wine, he shared a little extra intel.

Li Debo hadn't anticipated getting such surprising good news.

Once he'd sent the visitor away, Li Debo promptly guided the other elders back to the clan hall.

"According to him, Xiaxian Sect isn't just summoning all East Continent Immortal Tao powers for the ceremony—the Profound Immortal himself will lecture too. This event promises to be extraordinarily bustling and magnificent."

"Thus, we need to thoughtfully select our representatives this time."

The elders felt confused—what was there to deliberate? Ancestor Rui was obviously the perfect choice!

Noticing their expressions, Li Debo knew exactly their thoughts, but thinking of old ancestor Li Zhirui secluded in his cave mansion, a wry smile tugged at his lips.

"Ancestor Rui probably won't join this Grand Profound Immortal Ceremony."

Having minimal interaction with Li Zhirui, the elders were unaware of his preparations to sever karma and transcend at the opportune moment.

Under those conditions, he naturally wouldn't step out casually, avoiding any karmic ties that might impede his cultivation.

Still, Li Debo refrained from deciding solo and instead informed Li Zhirui via Sound Transmission Talisman, inquiring if he'd attend the Xiaxian Sect ceremony.

"The Grand Profound Immortal Ceremony?"

Receiving the Sound Transmission Talisman, a flicker of thought crossed Li Zhirui's eyes. Truth be told, he felt a bit tempted—observing a Profound Immortal up close held some allure, even if that one likely wouldn't demonstrate power.

Yet considering the hurried travel and risk of karmic entanglement, that minor urge quickly dissipated.

Right as he prepared to decline, his dormant Spirit Sense suddenly stirred—faintly sensing that going to the ceremony would aid his cultivation.

"This…"

This abrupt intuition left Li Zhirui wavering.

After pondering, he chose to heed his Spirit Sense. Every past prompting had yielded real gains, after all.

Thus, Li Zhirui sent Li Debo a single-word reply: 'Agreed.'

"Hm?!"

Opening the Sound Transmission Talisman and reading it, Li Debo froze in surprise.

"Clan Leader, what was Ancestor Rui's response?"

"Ancestor Rui has agreed."

Even as he announced it, Li Debo's face showed lingering puzzlement and bewilderment; he couldn't fathom why the old ancestor would consent in his present state.

"Having Ancestor Rui attend personally ensures our family's honor at the ceremony."

While he pondered that, the other elders conferred and resolved to include several top young talents. Gaining Li Zhirui's pointers en route would immensely boost their future cultivation.

Plus, this rare East Continent Immortal Tao spectacle offered perfect horizon-expanding exposure.

Regarding the gift, discussion ended with a bottle of top-grade Heavenly Immortal-grade Elixir.

In truth, the Li family possessed five or six rarer Creation Heavenly Pills, later refined by Li Zhirui to higher quality.

But their immense value made them too precious to gift casually—each could forge a Heavenly Immortal, after all.

Furthermore, a bottle of top-grade Heavenly Immortal-grade Elixir held ample prestige for a confident presentation.

Not just the Li family—every Human Immortal-level power and above across East Continent Immortal Tao got Xiaxian Sect invitations.

Consequently, Teleportation Arrays buzzed with activity during this time, filled with cultivators donning Xiaxian Sect's signature cloud-embroidered spirit robes coming and going.

No faction rejected Xiaxian Sect's invitation—some dreaded their might and complied; others, like the Li family, eager for the Profound Immortal lecture, eagerly joined.

...

Months flew by in an instant.

Though half a year remained until Xiaxian Sect's Grand Profound Immortal Ceremony, Li Zhirui in Shanhai State was already readying to set off.
